Mouth Ulcers, Sore Throat, Dark Bleeding From Mouth, Metallic Taste. Due To Bystolic Medication?

I have mouth ulcers and a very sore throat that is producing thick dark blood. I also have a severe metallic taste. I started taking bystolic & flexeril 4 weeks ago. Dr tested for strep and negative. The throat pain is acute and keeps me from sleeping. It feels very much like a dime sized ulcer in my throat. I stopped taking Flexeril thinking this was the cause but the symptoms are persisting. Could this be from bystolic? 41. male.

Hello,

Welcome to health care magic forum.

Bleeding from mouth usually occurs due to-gingivitis due to Inflammed gums.

Mouth ulcers as well as metallic taste in mouth often occurs due to poor oral hygiene,vitamin deficiency.

I would advice you to get a thorough scaling done.

Usually vitamin b complex as well as corticosteroids has to be administered in such cases.

Meanwhile,maintain oral hygiene well.

Take a nutritious balanced diet.

Avoid smoking,spicy foods.

Take care.
